Coco & Co Coconut Oil for Beauty

Aloha #BeautyBagDolls I am a huge fan of coconut oil and I am so happy to be bring you a review of the Coco & Co Coconut oil for beauty.  I was sent the 8 ounce Best Seller Bestie Jar is moving from my bathroom to my night stand so I can use it on my cuticles and legs before bed as wells as my hair to tame static and on my eye lashes to promote their growth. To purchase click here.
The Coco & Co Coconut Oil for beauty is the beauty oil for everyone and every need which makes it a beauty bag must!

Coconut oil has endless possibilities of uses and the Coco & Co coconut oil is "made from freshly pressed coconut milk, chilled and separated, this coconut oil remains raw and heat is never used in it's processing." This is clean and 100% raw coconut oil. I find that the scent to very light and fresh which is something that I love. It is so pure that it helps sooth my sensitive skin. My face gets the perfect amount of hydration it plumps my skin and is glowing! The moisture lasts all day when using the Coco & Co coconut oil for beauty. This has also worked a miracle on my dry hair and scalp. The weather has turned back to being cold and my hair has responded by being so dry that it almost hurts. Twice a week I have used this as a hair mask getting it into my scalp and down to the ends of my hair and leaving it in for about an hour and rinsing with shampoo as usual and my hair has turned around in literally one treatment. No more dry hair and static are gone for good. I only do this twice a week and my hair has completely gone back to normal but with added shine. In all honesty the Bestie Jar has become my beauty best friend. The Coco & Co Coconut Oil is a beauty bag must for all and gets a 5 $$$$$ for of course how good it is for you and for the fact that its just one product that is 100% coconut oil that you can use in so many places for your beauty! I am also giving this some EXTRA LOVE FROM ANNA!

hairdo. French Braid Band

I am over the moon excited to share with all of my #BeautyBagDolls a review of a brand called hairdo. They are a brand of hair extensions, wigs and accessories. This is a brand that is really awesome. I have a few different pieces to review and I am starting with the hairdo French Braid Band. This for me is the easiest way to start experimenting with hair extensions or accessories if your nervous. I wanted to dive right into everything but I went slow! To buy yours visit here.
The hairdo. French Braid Band is a beauty bag must! It is adjustable and easy to use to make any hair style next level!

Now like with any hair extension or accessory you have to choose a shade for me I knew I wanted to match mine as close as possible so after reviewing all the shades I knew that Butter Toast (dark blonde) would be perfect for me. hairdo makes several different shades and in the French Braid Band option there were 8 to choose from however, remember each shade choice mixes up to 11 shades of colors to make your perfect match. When I opened my box of goodies and saw they were Buttered Toast and I could immediately see the color was perfection and this was one of the most perfect shade I have ever seen in a hair accessory! I immediately slipped in on over my head played around a bit to adjust it (yes their is adjustable band that will adjust to fit your head perfectly) I wore this for the rest of the day at home and then worked it into my hair style the next day for work! It was easy to use and never moved, I had a 10 hour work day and never had to take it out and put it back in! I also love how I could tease my hair and place the hairdo French Braid Band and dress it up for a special occasion to go out to dinner with friends. Its comfortable and great for any hair occasion! The color match is on point and I could not be happier! This is a beauty bag must and a 5 $$$$$ this gets EXTRA LOVE FROM ANNA without a doubt.

Josie Maran Argan Lip Sting Plumping Butter Review

#BeautyBagDolls I am so excited today to be sharing with you my full review of a product I mentioned back in January from Josie Maran. I am a huge fan of several of her product that I have tried, her argan oils, body butters and milk serums have been a heaven sent for my skin even though it is acne prone and sensitive the Josie Maran skincare line has done wonders so I jumped at the chance to try out her Argan Lip Sting Plumping Butter. I learned about this a while ago and when I was sent two out of the three shades available for review I patiently awaited their delivery. Some information about the Josie Maran Argan Lip Sting Plumping Butter it is infused with 100% Pure Argan Oil, this plumping lip butter nourishes, conditions, soothes and volumizes lips. I defiantly want to try this lip sting plumping butter. However, the only choice one has to make is which shade do you want. It comes in three shades Work It which is a vanilla clear shade, Free It Grapefruit which is a pink shade and Embrace It Honey which is a nude shade.  Their is soothing manuka honey and moringa butter hydrate and enhance barrier recovery. To purchase click here.
A beauty bag must if you want hydrated plump lips with a beautiful shade of pink if you choose! I love Josie Maran Argan Lip Sting Plumping Butter.

If you were to take a look inside my makeup bag you will find lip balms and lipsticks, stains, glosses and tints in every shade of pink and mauves. So when I was sent the Josie Maran Argan Lip Sting Plumping Butter  in Work It Vanilla a clear shade and Free It Grapefruit which a pink shade I was beyond excited! I knew the pink shade called Free It Grapefruit was  beautiful in the tube but after I smoothed it on which you only need a swipe across the top lip and a swipe across the bottom lip because this is pigment rich lip sting. The sting by the way is very subtle and only lasts a few minutes however it is very effective in plumping your lips. I have very sensitive lips and I have tried a few other lip plumping products that I had to remove from my lips within seconds because the pain was unbearable. Now the Josie Maran Argan Lip Sting Plumping Butter to me is not even close to being stung by a bee (which I have been stung by one several times in my life and that really hurts) this to me does not feel like that at all! When I wore the  Free It Grapefruit which is the pink shade for the first time I actually received compliments people who know my obsession for lip products noticed that this shade was different and said it was one of the "best shades of pink I ever wore." I never really thought people would notice but they do when they like it. Now, as far as the Work It Vanilla a clear shade I took every advantage of wearing this for the hydration for the argan oil in it as well as its effect in treating my lips and keeping them plump. It was great to smooth on and then apply a lipstick/stain or gloss over top. I also loved to smooth some on before bed to help with any dry chap lips and it helped keep my lips looking plump for the long term benefits. I am in love with the Josie Maran Argan Lip Sting Plumping Butter and I have reached for it more often than I can count! The long term benefits are a plump pout and hydration! I always am in need of that so this is a 5 $$$$$ and this is a Beauty Bag Must have getting EXTRA LOVE FROM ANNA! Joise Maran Cosmetics has knocked out of the park yet again!

Wildbloom Skincare Serum & Face Oil

#BeautyBagDolls I have a really great products for you today. They at from Wildbloom Skincare. This brand has really changed my skincare routine since starting to use this brand. I am going to review their Hyaluronic Rescue Face Serum and the Perfect Clarity Face Oil.  Now I have always been nervous using a hyaluronic serum until I learned about this one and I am a open to face oils because they have always worked well for me so read on to learn more.
These two Wildbloom skincare product together make your skin glow!

The Wildbloom Skincare Hyaluronic Rescue Face Serum made me nervous until I read that is made for sensitive combination skin which describes mine perfectly. After cleansing I use one pump as suggested (which is more than enough for your face, neck and décolletage) Now I apply this all over my skin and it absorbs very quickly in under 30 seconds. I had experienced no irritation or stinging which is great because other serums have irritated my skin but the Wildbloom Skincare Hyaluronic Rescue Face Serum absorbed quickly and left my face feeling smooth and less redness in my chin (that has always been an issue for me). However, the serum truly reduced my redness and soothed my skin. I followed up with the skin changing I want to sing about Wildbloom Perfect  Clarity Face Oil. This face oil has changed my skin from oil and or dry to just plain normal! Normal is just perfect. I apply this each morning after the serum. I applied about 2 or 3 drops all over my face and I literally watched my pores shrink after about three uses. My face drank this in and within about a minute I could apply my makeup. My old scars from some acne breakouts faded and I didn't have any new breakouts even though I was using a oil! My skin feels soft, supple and balanced! Both the Hyaluronic Rescue Face Serum and Perfect Clarity Face Oil are a 5 $$$$$. They have honestly changed my combination skin for the best it has been in a long time. You must try this it gets EXTRA LOVE FROM ANNA!

Josie Maran Argan Oil Black Mascara

#BeautyBagDolls I have found the mascara I now wear everyday and it is actually good for my lashes. It is from Josie Maran and it the Argan Oil Black Mascara which is "clinically proven to increase the appearance of lash volume 10x after one application!" I prefer a mascara in which I can just apply one coat and go so I put this one to the test. To purchase visit Josie Maran Cosmetics.
My favorite mascara is from Josie Maran. Its a beauty bag must because its good for your lashes!

It is a true black mascara which what I wear pretty much all time and the wand on this mascara is perfect to grab every lash you have along with giving your lashes a good curl to them so do not curl your lashes with an eye lash curler. You save a lot of steps and its just bad for your lashes. I also have to mention that the  "Argan Black Oil Mascara treats your lashes to the nourishing lash-softening effect of 100% Pure Argan Oil mixed with blackest-black iron mineral pigments, and infused with the lash strengthening properties of bamboo—delivered in an innovative 5 ball brush that reaches every lash." I am pretty sure that this is the healthiest mascara I have ever used because I had not lost even a single eye lash while using this in fact my eye lashes look and feel softer than ever. They are never dry or crunchy and the fact that I could use one coat and go or apply two coats for even more drama without having fall out of the mascara itself or of my eye lashes is just amazing!  I also must mention I have sensitive eyes and this never irritated or bothered them one bit! (I also recommend applying the Josie Maran Coconut Water Eye Shadow previous reviewed here) I have to say this is a beauty bag must and a 5 $$$$$ because I am reaching for this mascara all the time even on days that I usually would wear mascara I want to wear it because it has improved my eye lashes. This has my EXTRA LOVE FROM ANNA approval.

Wildbloom Skincare Soothing Ayurvedic Clay Mask

Today I have part one of a two part review from an amazing skincare brand called Wildbloom Skincare. Today I will review Wildbloom Skincare Soothing Ayurvedic Clay Mask. I love a face mask I am not a fan however of at times the fact that they irritate my skin and dry it out but this mask my skin was revived without any skin irritations! To purchase your visit here.
I am in love with the Wildbloom Skincare and this mask is a beauty bag must!

When I opened this up I immediately noticed the lightweight texture of this mask it is like a whipped cream and I love it! You just need a small scoop about a quarter size and use the spatula provided to keep the jar clean and dry. I applied a thin layer to my face and neck. It felt really lightweight on my skin and firmed up after about 15 minutes. It is a really nice mask that doesn't sting or burn like some masks do. I am happy to report I was able to wear this one for the full 15 minutes before rinsing with cool water. After I rinsed I then saw what the white clay, chamomile and marshmallow root did for my skin. I reveled a much brighter and supple skin. It evened out my skin tone and calmed the areas of my face that are usually red and irritated.  This Wildbloom Skincare Soothing Ayurvedic Clay Mask is skin changing! It truly is the real deal and it is suggested to use it once or twice a week. I am using it every Monday and Thursday to keep my skin looking calm and bright! I am on all honesty addicted to the results! This is an absolute Beauty Bag Must have no doubt in my heart or mind! It is a 5 $$$$$. Get yours now and you will see results immediately! My skin has never been so smooth so that means Wildbloom Skincare gets EXTRA LOVE FROM ANNA!

Masque Bar Sleeping Mask w/ Lavender

My skin #BeautyBagDolls has been pretty dry and tiered lately. With recent ups and downs with the weather from warm to freezing cold I have been trying lots of different things to battle the dry dull skin I have been experience over the past two weeks! When I grabbed the Masque Bar Sleeping Mask with Lavender I knew this was something different. It is a mask that moisturizes and brightens your complexation over night. You apply this on your clean dry skin and leave it on overnight. Which means you sleep with it. I had never really used a mask like this before where you sleep with one on so read on to learn what my experience was. You can purchase your sleep mask at Walgreens.
Visit your local Walgreens to buy this sleep mask that will change your skin over night!

Around 10PM when I got home I immediately always remove my makeup it is nonnegotiable for me, makeup must come off no matter how tired I am. After cleansing, I grabbed a brush and applied an even amount on my face avoiding my eye area of course. I let it dry for quite a while the first time I tried this because I was nervous that it would end up on my pillow case however I must say this dries on really well and nothing was on my pillow case in the morning. Instead after I woke up and washed this off my skin was left feeling really soft and silky. It also was hydrated and bright I am very impressed and I am now using the Masque Bar Sleeping Mask with Lavender at least 2-3 times a week. With ingredients like "Aloe, Witch Hazel and Plant derived ingredients leaves skin feeling moisturized and brightened." I must say that these ingredients work and have rejuvenated my dry skin that was feeling very dehydrated from this yoyo weather pattern! This is a beauty bag must and a 5 $$$$$.

Kneipp Lavender Bubble Bath Relaxing Lavender

#BeautyBagDolls do yo ever have trouble relaxing?! I know I do and in the evening my thoughts are racing I have a million things still left to do and a million more to do the next day but my favorite thing to do is to take a bubble bath and relax and now I have a bubble bath that helps with just that it is the Kneipp Lavender Bubble Bath Relaxing Lavender This is made with essential oils, has no preservative, is vegan and not tested on animals.
A cap full of this bubble bath will relax you which makes it a beauty bag must for me!

I immediately noticed how wonderful it smell and the scent itself is relaxing. According to the directions on the bottle you use one full cap full of the bubble bath per bath which makes this one bottle enough to last eight full baths which is quite a bit. I love that the Kneipp Lavender Bubble Bath Relaxing Lavender has enough bubble to last for about 15 minutes before dissipating and truly fills the room with a wonderful lavender scent without being over powering! The lavender bubble bath fills the tub with beautiful shades of blue and lavender like a calm ocean. Along with the beneficial ingredients, the color of the bath water can play a part in calming one's mood through the use of color therapy. After I get out of the tub I do truly feel relaxed and calm I melt away all of my stresses and do forget about those millions of thing I need to get done. I love this bubble bath and I use it about twice a week on those extra stressful day when I can just feel that I wont be able to relax and this just helps calm me down and distress! This is a beauty bag must and a 5 $$$$$.
